Despite the growing professionalization of ASL-English interpreting in the United States, questions remain regarding the decisions involving the placement of appropriately qualified and credentialed interpreters on assignments, a process referred to as scheduling. Over the past 40 years, reliance on community-sourced interpreting provision has evolved into a dependence on professional interpreting agencies and other entities engaged in the business of scheduling interpreters. Anecdotally, both professional interpreters and consumers of interpreting services report frustration with how interpreters currently are scheduled for assignments. I adopt an institutional ethnographic (IE) approach to investigate the regulation and organization of interpreter scheduling. Drawing on interviews, focus groups, and observations of scheduling activity, I report on the process of scheduling, the efficacy of providing access to clients, and the intersection of the institution of access with other large social constructs of racism and capitalism that impede access. Experiential accounts from study participants illuminate a sequence of coordinated action in interpreters' local practice. Beyond these experiential accounts are observable moments of discourse and texts that organize the sequence of scheduling ASL-English interpreters. Key stakeholders coordinated by this sequence lack information and standards to inform their work. A clearer understanding of the processes of interpreter scheduling can shed light on competing factors and recommendations for future practices, and may lead to greater collaboration on practices which are better equipped to ensure access.
